Also check if there are any special conditions you'll have to follow on arrival, such as taking a COVID-19 test. Requirements state you must wear a face mask at the airport, including at screening checkpoints. Be ready to adjust your mask for ID purposes when asked. To minimize the risk of cross-contamination, place your boarding pass on the scanner yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your pass directly to a TSA officer. You can take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your hand luggage. You'll have to remove it for screening. Put any personal items (phone, keys and wallet) in your carry-on rather than a bin to minimize handling during the screening process. If you're taking food through security screening, put it in a clear plastic bag and then into a screening bin. This lessens the likelihood that a TSA officer will need to touch your carry-on bag or food container for closer inspection.
